The Time4Learning Benefits You Might Have Missed

Sure, everyone knows that Time4Learning is an online curriculum that’s fun and easy to use for preschool through high school. We know that the multimedia lessons keep kids and teens engaged as they learn. We even know that it’s great for homeschool, afterschool, and summer use. Yet, behind the comprehensive, standards-based program used by tens of thousands of families, lie a host of benefits of homeschooling with Time4Learning that aren’t as well-known.

Let’s look at 17 of the benefits you receive as a Time4Learning subscriber that you definitely should be aware of, if you aren’t already.

Time4Learning Helps for Students

Free printables — Although Time4Learning is an online curriculum, we know that many parents and students appreciate the hands-on reinforcement of printable worksheets. These are available for many of the curriculum lessons and can be found in the Resources section of the Parent Dashboard.

Educational Playground — Whether it’s used as a break between lessons or as an incentive system, the learning playground is a safe, fun, and motivating environment for students.

Educational Gameroom — Similar to the Playground, Time4Learning offers students in grades 4-12 age-appropriate games, educational activities, and more. Timer settings allow you to control when and how long your student can access this environment.

Time4Art — One of the most fun perks of homeschooling for Time4Learning students is the animated art curriculum available to users starting in the fourth grade. Kids learn both art theory and art history with online and offline activities.

Time4Friends — Teens usually have a strong need to connect with other teens based on mutual interests and activities. That’s why our Time4Friends moderated social network for high schoolers is so popular with students.
